Зацените, я, оказывается, 10 лет назад уже заметил, что с системными кнопками на Android что-то не так, и подход к их проектированию надо менять.
Сейчас в 2022 абсолютное большинство Android телефонов либо в режиме "Кнопки на экране, когда нужны", либо, что еще удобнее, в режиме жестов вообще без кнопок. Это совершенно очевидный вектор развития.
Год назад я предсказывал, что Apple откажется от моноброви (потому что это очевидно очень плохое решение), но сделает это со скрипом, чтобы сохранить хорошую мину при плохой игре. И вот, Apple ввела этот свой островок: типа мы убираем монобровь, но постепенно. Через пару поколений дорастут до камеры-точки или, если хватит смелости, до подэкранной. Запомните этот твит.

🚀 Varys Capital's Tom Dunleavy Highlights Dramatic Shift in Crypto Funding Landscape
The cryptocurrency market has experienced a significant shift in its funding environment over the past six months, according to Odaily. Tom Dunleavy, Head of Venture Capital at Varys Capital, shared on X that the process for venture capitalists (VCs) to secure promising projects has changed drastically. Previously, VCs had to engage in extensive networking, content creation, podcast appearances, and numerous calls to attract investments. Now, simply having available funds is sufficient, as projects are actively seeking out VCs.
Currently, most VC firms are in one of three states: they have exhausted their funds, shifted focus to later-stage investments (Series A and beyond), or are in the process of fundraising, albeit with difficulty. Fundraising timelines have extended from 2-3 weeks to 2-3 months. Projects with questionable business models or those merely replicating the latest trends are struggling to secure new or follow-up funding, which Dunleavy views as a positive development.
There are fewer than 20 firms actively investing in pre-seed or seed rounds. VCs now have the luxury of selecting projects more carefully and conducting thorough due diligence. The investment cycle of 2025-2026 is anticipated to be a historic 'golden opportunity,' provided VCs can endure the current market conditions.
